If you're ready to be wowed, go here, start up the movie, wait till it loads completely, then skip the first (boring) part and go to about 7:40 into the movie. That's where they show you the amazing new features of the new Photoshop. Very impressive!

I'm here. I don't see anything.

You need to click on tuqqer's "here" linky.

Then click on the YouTube window or you can download the video podcast with the link provided just above.

I sit on a man’s back, choking him and making
him carry me, and yet assure myself and others
that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his
lot by all possible means — except by getting off
his back. - Leo Tolstoy, novelist and Philosopher
(1828-1910)

wow...

Those are some cool features...thanks for sharing.

i missed the linky.

Good stuff!

WOW.

Holy crap, I guess the upgrade is worth the wait, eh?

Been using it most of the day today. WOW do some of the features use some horsepower - dual 2.7GHz G5 processors run full blast anytime I try and do the smart mask features (and it's not as good as me - yet, need to practice with it for masking images).

Will try on my MacBook Pro 17" 2.33 tonight more.... but you're right, some real compelling new features here.

Good Luck!

They mention nothing about Imageready and how it relates to Photoshop now. I was hoping that it's features would be integrated into Photoshop and Imageready sent packing. Gonna have to see.

Wow, that's pretty impressive.

Just because it has two clutches, shifts faster, uses a torque converter or has near-infinite gear ratios, requires less driver intervention and is more efficient doesn't make it better in my opinion.

Smart mask is included in PS elements 4.0.

Several questions arise: Why is Chris Breen whispering? Why does the Adobe guy have red eyes, and why is Jason Snell standing on the adobe guy's desk? Hmmmm.

Good features, though... I'll need to try it.

I haven't seen the video, but I've been doing non-destructive filtering in Photoshop, using Adjustment Layers, since version 6, I think.

the new feature can blur an image via a smart filter which can be changed even after the image has been saved...

Just a couple--sharpen and blur if I remember correctly. On the other hand,
it didn't have blending modes and required conversion to a proprietary file format
before you could work with an image. All in all, I miss it more for the potential of
what it could have evolved into had it not been squashed out of existence.

Peculiarly, Adobe's purchase of Macromedia must mean that somewhere in their
possession is the shriveled corpse of XRes, Macromedia's aborted competitior
to Live Picture.
